Answer:

  • second choice:<em><u> 1.0 g of the solution contains 15 × 10⁻⁶ g of benzene.</u></em>

Explanation:

ppm is a unit of concentration that means parts per million. In grams that is grams of solute per one million (10⁶) grams of solution.

Then, <em>15 ppm of benzene</em> means that there are 15 grams of benzen in 1,000,000 grams of solution.

That leads to:

  • 1,000,000 g solution / 15 g benzene

Multiplying numerator and denominator by 10⁻⁶ you find:

  • 1,000,000 × 10⁻⁶ g solution / (15 × 10⁻⁶ g benzene)

Simplifying:

  • 1.0 g solution / (15 × 10⁻⁶ g benzene)

Which is read as 1.0 g of the solution contains 15 × 10⁻⁶ g of benzene, i.e. the second answer choice.
